Vauxhall Mokka-e
Discussion
We've just placed an order for a new Mokka-e for my other half to replace his Renault Zoe ZE40.
We've ordered it in Elite Nav Premium trim, adding Mamba Green paint and Intellilux LED lights. They're giving us £8,550 for his 2018 Zoe (battery lease, 23,000 miles on it at present) and we're paying £31,750 for the Mokka after discounts and PiCG.
I never thought I'd pay £30k for a Vauxhall but I think they're being generous with the part-ex so in my mind it's still a £2x,xxx car! The trim level seems to be a sweet spot as it comes with all the main kit we wanted like the bigger dashboard screens, blind spot alert, and adaptive cruise control - discussing it with the dealer the discounts are heftier on this spec than the higher Ultimate trim which only seemed to add bigger wheels, some dark trim, and the Intellilux lights, the latter of which can be added as an option on the lower spec anyway.
Has anyone else ordered/received an electric Mokka yet? Any lived experiences? I don't think there's a Mokka thread yet!

I know - I paid less for a brand new C-class 6 years ago! Looking around it seems to be the "going" rate for an electric car and the level of tech is right up there with the premium price... but yes, it was a mental jump to justify it!THIRTY ONE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY POUNDS.

£30k only seems a lot if you remember how much cars cost 10 or 20 years ago. You can't expect to have an ultra modern car with tons of kit and a completely new propulsions system for £10k.
Electric motors arent a new propulsion system. Battery prices have fallen massively over the past few years and when you take the price of not having an engine, gearbox, exhaust, radiator etc out of the equasion no way do they cost £10k more to produce than an equivalent small petrol car.Cupramax said:

Good luck actually leaving a dealership with a C-class for that price. I am sure you could, but that is going to be bottom of the barrel and most likely a special order. I suspect that you would need to bring a further 5k-8k to get it close to the spec of a top-of-the-range model like a Mokka-e. And dont forget that an EV is more expensive to start with! And doesnt the Mokka-e come with a government incentive?off_again said:

Not disagreeing, more in response to the comment that someone paid less for a new one some time ago, than the price of this mokka.
It was me, the OP! I've got a 6 year old C-class which I bought new for less than we've just agreed to pay for a Mokka-e - I was just agreeing further up that the price shocked me, but that looking around it's the "going" rate for a well specc'd box-fresh electric vehicle.Thread made me curious so I went digging and found the original order for my C-class:
